Nope, Kata, lowepro and Crumpler. For me personally, the Lowepro Photo Trekker AW II is fantastic.

just lowepro - works well for me

I've always used Lowepro as well - Micro and mini-trekkers, and a couple of smaller cases as well. Can't fault the quality

No sorry, but they do look like pretty good bags - in particular, this one Big Back Pack

I know everyone recommends the brand names, but when I was looking for a serious size bag, I couldnt afford the £150 or so for a brand, so got a totally unheard of make for a third of the price and you know what, its solidly made, carries everything and well padded, and showerproof and has a fully waterproof pullover cover sown into the base for those real British Weather days - so basically I am all for stepping outside the Lowepro/Kata box and trying something else if it suits your needs/pocket.

One of these. I can fit the D200 with a Sigma 120-300 attached down the middle and still put another body across the top as well just to give an idea of size - it is BIG, especially for a little un like me, but does carry everything I need, being a woman, you know, kitchen sink etc

Got mine about 15months ago and I dont know of that one has the same feature, but the pull over cover on mine reverses and is silver for reflecting heat, but can double in extreme emergencies as a reflector They doa range of different bags all made to mimic lowepro, etc, cant vouch for any of the others, but I know that one does a damn fine job

I have ordered plenty of stuff from that ebay shop with no problems, though of course they do have some neg feedback, so all I can say is I havent had any probs, from 6 or 7 different orders :shrug:

Thanks for the link. The M-Rock Shenandoah Camera Bag looks exactly what I'm looking for!
Might give it a try.

Tamrac 4 me

I just got a pretty boy back pack, as wanted a bag that didnt look like a camera bag and this is pretty good for that.

However not to happy with the overall storage space in it and for £60 thats not a good situation to be in. The bag is well made no doubt about that, but looks like ill have to take the lens off every time I want to put it away, which isnt the situation I wanted to be in.

Like the M Rock Back and the one posted by LadyLens.

I really like this one: http://www.m-rock.co.uk/proddetail.asp?prod=64969 some nice touches.
